Dear Guests, During the busy summer months when the York Races are on, we politely ask that you read over the following information to make your stay with us as smooth and enjoyable as possible: -If you are staying for the races and need to get changed before 2pm, we will do our very best to let you quickly get ready in your apartment before it has been cleaned, which we know isn’t ideal but at least you can get changed in time! This cannot be guaranteed though. -Please check with us if you are ensure about sleeping arrangements in your apartment, preferable before you have made your booking. -Please plan your trip in advance, for example make sure you book a taxi days in advance, as there can be waiting times of up to 3 hours on the day!

A shuttle bus can be taken from the train station to the racecourse. -Make sure you’ve got cash for the taxi! The nearest cash machines to use are located at Tescos on Goodramgate and at Sainsburys […]

York is a popular hen night destination due to the wide array of bars, clubs, restaurants, and other fun activities to do all within the city walls. The one thing York doesn’t have is a wide array of accommodation for large groups.
